At the Intel keynote Gabe Newell took the stage and presented a little demo of Portal 2 running on a Sandy Bridge system.
Jack writes: "Yet again browsing the latest offers in the Steam Spring Sale has led us to track down the very best. In terms of price to quality, we don’t think that it gets much better than this. Portal 2 is now less than a dollar, and if you haven’t got it already, now is the time to pick it up."
Portal deserves to be one of steams highest rated games... It's almost tetris levels of perfect game design.
Gotta love Steam. Just got Portal 2 for .97 cents CAD. Should have been $1.29, selected the bundle with Portal 1 and 2, which gets a 25% discount, already have Portal 1, so it removes the cost of that, and still applies the full 25% bundle discount to Portal 2. 90% + 25% discount.
Given the medium's wild diversity, this primer of the essential video games everyone should try is a good place to start.
I can't fk with this list. They missed on alot of games probably before the writers times. Also I know people loved some portal but I was never a fan.
Tomb Raider 1
Driver 1
Abe’s Odyssey
FF6
King of Fighters 94
Mortal Kombat OG
LINK 2 the past
Street Fighter 2
Resident Evil 1
Infinite but not the first two games? Witcher 3 but not the first two games?? GTA V but not literally any of the games before it??? Portal 2 but not the first? Also if you're going to play Shadow of The Colossus play the remaster and not the remake. Can't say I disagree with the list but my man it's all over the place.
Awesome list! Hot take on Fear (and it's hard af expansion Persaus Mandate!) Bioshock Infinite is stellar, so is the Witcher 3 and you nailed it by having Ocarina of Time. So many fantastic games! Gotta play 'em all! Next one on my list is Prey after I beat Dead Space 2 and Splinter Cell Conviction.
Chris Brandrick, writing for overkill, speaks to Stefan Heinz, the lead developer on Portal: Revolution, a new fan-made campaign prequel to Portal 2.
valve suck so much at making games now, opting just to smaug on top of an enormous pile of money,
that fans got so desperate that they have to make their own games.
this industry is fucking over.
I wonder if this is the reason ps3 version was supposed to be the best version?? great!! PC has kinect & Move the best of both worlds.. yay!! That thing will get me murdered in counter strike!! I want to try it with tf2!!

Cant wait for the sandy bridge cpus time to upgrade my E8400 its showing its age and i just got the 6870HD. So a new cpu and mobo is the next step. Also great new footage.
Gabe Newell is not the skinniest of people, so why did he decide to stand in front of the screen?
Portal 2 is the most overhyped game this generation.
The first game was a basic puzzle game that was extremely short and had 12 year old humour that made me silently snigger for all of 0.002 seconds.
It was basically a free game with the orange box and was then released for free to everyone on PC and mac...yet console gamers will pay $59 for the sequel :S:S:S
If anyone wants to get it they should pay no more than $10 at a steam sale.
But when people are used to paying $29.99 for a $5 game on PSN...complacency is to be expected.
White noise
True that, I could never get through more than 10 min. of portal without becoming extremely bored....and it was free!!
Portal 2 will be bought by me for $5.79 in the summer maddness sale
